Hello everyone,
I recently assembled a new PC with Windows 11 and I'm facing a problem.
When I start the PC, everything works fine for the first few seconds, then suddenly it begins to slow down: window animations become choppy, applications open more slowly, the audio sounds like it's in slow motion, and strangely, if I play a video on YouTube, besides the choppy audio, the video timer itself also runs in slow motion.
This usually lasts a few minutes, but the duration is inconsistent ??sometimes it lasts 30 seconds, other times up to 4 minutes.
After that, the problem does not occur again until the next reboot.
I have already tried reinstalling all the drivers and reformatting the PC several times without any success.
When I reset the system, I made sure to only keep the keyboard and mouse connected, so that all other drivers could be installed properly afterward.
The error that just appeared during startup is this:
Kernel-EventTracing ID 28 provider
"Error while setting traits on provider {8444a4fb-d8d3-4f38-84f8-89960a1ef12f}. Error: 0xC0000001."
I'm not sure if this could be the cause.
During the slowdown, I checked Task Manager and no component seems to be under stress (CPU and RAM are around 15-20%).
Here are my components:
Motherboard: Asrock X870 Pro RS WiFi
CPU: Ryzen 7 9800X3D
RAM: 2x Corsair Vengeance 16GB 6000MHz
PSU: Silent Storm Cool Zero 850W
CPU Cooler: Arctic Liquid Freezer III 360
GPU: Gigabyte Gaming OC RTX 3080
SSD: WD BLACK SN850X 2TB NVEM
What could it be? I don't know what else to try.

My first guess is that it's overheating.
Install hwinfo64, look at various temperatures, especially CPU temperature, while it's behaving like that.
If your Arctic Liquid Freezer III 360 is hooked up to one of the motherboard fan connectors, see its water pump behavior.

Those are my temperatures, i don't see nothing wrong https://imgur.com/a/65nI7TX" rel="nofollow - https://imgur.com/a/65nI7TX .
What do you mean check liquid behavior?

If the water pump is connected to one of the 4-pin fan connectors on the motherboard, you can get some info about it, but if temps are fine, don't bother.
Maybe check Event log for error events? I don't have any other ideas.
